The manual had zero use to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Converting reward to equivalent value....]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have obtained a token to buy an Epic grade manual!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Claim.’ Dante collected the reward with a thought and a purple token appeared in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Manual Token]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Grade: Epic]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Description: Usable only for manuals.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After checking the token, he scrolled through the rest of the notifications while flipping it between his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Natasha’s favourability has increased by 4.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Current Favourability: 45 (Crush)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Nice! Finally some real progress.’ He thought with a satisfied grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the favourability kept going up by 1, Ryan would come back before it even crossed 60 and he could forget about ever becoming that bastard’s father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he and Natasha weren’t the only ones living in this mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emma also lived with them, mostly because the Raven Group headquarters was near the mansion. She would be busy with work and wasn’t home half the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, she was on a business trip outside the Allied States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Once Emma comes back, the difficulty is going to shoot up.’ Dante’s expression turned serious. ’I’ll need to focus on her too.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha knew that Emma liked him. She would definitely use that as an excuse to put distance between them again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’In that case....’ A scheming grin formed on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I’ll make her do the opposite.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was going through his future plans, his eyes landed on the villain points notifications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You touched Natasha inappropriately and gaslighted her into thinking it was normal.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[+1,000 villain points!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You made Natasha think dirty and imagine herself getting spanked by you.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[+1,500 villain points!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You tricked Natasha into sucking the life out of you and made fun of her!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[+1,500 villain points!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Current balance: 12,000 villain points]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"....Can you phrase that last one properly?\" Dante had a speechless look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Technically, Natasha did suck the life out of him. But if anyone read that out of context, they would think of something completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he was happy about the villain points finally crossing five digits. He needed to buy something for the next mission and it would prove very helpful down the line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’But first, let’s buy a manual.’ Dante opened the villain store and went straight to the techniques section.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After browsing for a while, he finally found what he was looking for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Path of Awakeners]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Grade: Epic]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[A manual written for those walking the path of awakeners.

Includes a Super Rare mana cultivation technique and basic combat spells such as fireball, wind blade, and others.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s basically an all-in-one. And exactly what I needed!\" Dante said with a smile. \"Searching through hundreds of techniques was really worth the effort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could have just bought an Epic grade mana technique and called it a day, but for giving up one grade, the bargain he got was way too good to pass up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up until now, he had been going off the knowledge he had from the novel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The author never went into deep detail about cultivation, so his understanding of mana and how it actually worked was seriously lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, he had just been absorbing mana and hoping for a breakthrough. His recent one made him realize it wasn’t going to be that easy going forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"More importantly, I can’t just keep relying on items!\" He wanted to learn some real techniques and build up his own strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, an Epic grade mana technique wouldn’t help him much either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he really needed was a Divine grade technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a low-level Divine grade technique cost more than a million villain points. It would take him months to save up that much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only way to get them faster was by stacking favourability milestones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had already reserved Natasha’s milestone rewards for a bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, there is an easier way actually.\" He said with a grin. \"Master did say she was planning to teach me. She’s really serious about making me the successor it seems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mana technique of Eden’s Gate, the oldest awakener organisation in the world, had to be a top-level Divine grade at the very least.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I also have another option.\" He added with a devious look.\"If the mother is going to give me one, the son should too, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking it through, he used the token to buy the manual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You have successfully purchased \"Path of Awakeners\"!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Would you like to absorb it?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Dante nodded as he got into a meditation position and closed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, a vast amount of knowledge poured into his mind. The origin of mana. How cultivation actually worked. What awakeners really were and how they came to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things the novel barely touched on and things the author probably didn’t even know himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few hours later, Dante slowly opened his eyes and held his head with a frown. \"Ugh... Whoever wrote this wasn’t joking when they said detailed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My head is killing me. I probably would have fainted if I wasn’t an awakener.\" He rubbed his temples, but feeling the mana flowing through his body smoothly for the first time, a smile crept onto his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mana technique he got from the manual was called the Flowing River Art. And it really lived up to its name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mana moved through his circuits like it finally had a road to follow instead of him just dumping it in and hoping for the best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Super Rare technique is already this good?\" He clenched his fist, feeling the difference in every fiber of his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How broken would a Divine one be?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1031,"2026-06-06T06:16:27.508Z",1,"novelbin.me","43fc0560edbf3df851fc54e8a75ea13186dec6dfb88855300cdc7909c018d497",null,"villain-10x-rewards-begins-with-the-protagonist--chapter-42","https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fvillain-10x-rewards-begins-with-the-protagonist--cover.jpg"]
